I have never worked for any campaign. I was apathetic until Bush won in 2000. That woke me up and shocked me.

John Anderson! I was just thinking about his campaign yesterday. I worked the phones some for him in 1980 -- one of the true mavericks. When push came to shove, I still ended up going with Carter.
When people complain about centrists, in a way, the are complaining about Anderson, because he's the one who showed the pols how fertile that ground was. Clinton was essentially Anderson, with more charisma and the Democratic machine behind him.
